The Clear Skin Diet offers a holistic approach to acne management by exploring the connections between nutrition, hormones, and skin health. It provides dietary recommendations, supplement advice, and lifestyle changes to help reduce acne. The book includes recipes and meal plans to support these changes.
In this book, Dr. Mark Hyman debunks the conventional wisdom about fat, revealing the health and weight-loss benefits of a high-fat diet rich in foods like eggs, nuts, oils, and avocados. The book introduces a 21-day Eat Fat, Get Thin Plan, which includes practical tools, meal plans, recipes, and shopping lists to help readers achieve optimum wellness. It also addresses common misconceptions about different types of fats and their impact on health, and includes testimonials from participants who have seen significant health improvements and weight loss.

Acne is the number-one skin condition in the United States, affecting not just millions of teenagers but an increasing number of adults under the guise of hormones. Typically, the first thing we reach for to deal with acne is a lotion, potion, or cream to apply to the skin—and conventional medicine doctors frequently prescribe birth-control pills. However, these approaches do not target the root cause of acne.
In this episode of my Masterclass series, I am interviewed by my good friend and podcast host, Dhru Purohit, about the biggest triggers of acne, why we all react differently, and the top nutrients for skin health. We also discuss some frequently asked questions from our community about acne during puberty and more.
